Enabling Automation In Security Operations

Many manual processes unknowingly rely on the operator or analyst to infer some fact from available information. This fact is often a key consideration for making an operational decision. While it may be trivial to provide the information via a user interface or set of dashboards, often it is very hard to do this accurately via automation. Accessibility, consistency, and relatability are the main reasons why a manual decision cannot be fully automated without modifications to processes or the resources that store the associated information.
